Summer Romance and Re-Entry
«

I picked up these two plants at the open house but I don't have any photos of 'Re-Entry' and I'm not sure if the one I found of 'Summer Romance' is the right one. Do you have any photos to post? Is the 'Summer Romance' you had a Bob Carran hybrid?
Many thanks!

Hi Dee,
Summer Romance is an HVH hybrid. It's a new one that is a big flower, usually 8 inches and can be larger. The colors inspired the name. Re-Entry is also a new HVH hybrid, 6-7 inches in the hot orange/red/yellow colors that remind me of the blast furnace that the Space Shuttle creates when it hits the atmosphere on the way back from orbit. Photos of both below.

I know the feeling, too many I want and not enough space for them.
Same problem with roses and daylilies.
